NEW CAR GTECHNIQ PROTECTION

One of our latest new car protection details was brought to us by a regular customer of our's,he had spotted the car gleaming in the dealership showroom but had also spotted on closer inspection all the fine scratches on the body  due to the poor quality washing/polishing from an externally sourced valeting company!
The dealership and new owner agreed to then allow us to give the car a full paint correction / gtechniq protection detail at the cost of the externally sourced valeting company.
Once the vehicle arrived we gave it our full sun gun and paint depth inspection to see the best way to make the car better than factory finish!
This picture showed one of the most severe scratches on the vehicle

This was the most severe  scratch bieng removed by wet sanding
We had started on the major work which was a multi stage sratch removal comprising of wet sanding and multiple pad/ compound machine polishing whilst constantly anylising the vehicles paintwork.
On completion of the full vehicle scratch removal we then gave the car a Ph neutral wash and plush towel dry as not to induce any more marring to the car.
We then gave the car a full air line blow out to remove all excess water ( a detailers worst enemy lol)
and gave it a full ipa wipe down,this process is to remove all excess compound/polish etc so that under the final sun gun inspection you have the true finish of the vehicle paint work!

Now that all the defects were removed and the vehicle was fully dry we began the protection process Gtechnic C1 crystal coating was the first line of defence for this beauty! we applied this to the vehicle and waited for a few hours for the curing period to start,We then applied the second form of defence which complied of Gtechniq EXO super hydrophobic coating this was applied in two coats then the car was left to fully cure overnight.

We then had the wheel protection which comprosed of full wheel removal deep clean and Gtechniq C5
applied, once fully cured ( overnight again) we then re fitted all the wheels to the manafactures torque settings.

Next in line for this now stunning looking AUDI was a full Gtechniq interior protection and exterior glass rain repellant,The car was fully vac'd and wiped down then a full leather protection system was used Gtechniq L1 leather guard- helps protect against cross contamination from jean dye etc when entering and leaving the vehicle,
We then protected the dash door cards etc with Gtechniq C6 this offers UV protection, all high gloss trims were wax'd up for a stunning finish and windows were cleaned internal and externally.
Last of all was the exterior glass was fitted with Gtechniq G1 rain repellant and the car was ready for hand over, This detail took exactly one week from start to finish, here are the end result pictures
